"Unlikely to" is a qualifier and doesn't close the door. Say "Won't".

Again, from a designer standpoint. The client gets less than a benefit.

I make mistakes by the dozens all the time, but I don't stick to a
position because it was confusing to learn in the first place and hard
to give up once I did. Well, not in this case.

I'm not being unreasonable. I truly tried to 'soft shoe' my objection to
frames for you. I had a fairly large commercial site made of them until
this group made me see the light.

I felt the heat at, what is it, 8000 miles away. I'm not unfair. But us
fundamentalists sometimes see the 'true' light. Reach for the light. Oh,
and smiley, smiley, smiley.
Don't be angry with me. I'm a Labrador Retriever living in Reykjavik and
struggling with the lava. My old master Olaf told me to spread the
message that frames must die.
